My streams are continuously being interrupted by an error message that tells me to lower my bandwidth but there is no option for that in the settings. I ran speed tests on my internet but unfortunately I have no idea what the results mean.

You're getting a message to lower your bandwidth because you are attempting to stream at a higher rate than your connection can handle. Livestream recommends a minimum of 700Kbps for effective streaming - you only have about 1/7th of that.

What type of internet are you using (wired, wireless, 3g, etc)?

Been using Procaster. My internet SHOULD be higher than that according to my service provider. It's a wireless connection.

Could you try plugging into your router and see if your experience improves at all. Also if you could please try just streaming using the mobile preset in Procaster and let me know if you still get the error message.

You're upload speed looks too low to stream. You need to check with your ISP to see what you should be getting. You really want to be at .7Mb or more. You might get by with .5Mb and a very low data rate stream.

there they are now please help, it stops streaming after 3 minutes or so. and I'm supposed to stream for about an hour. thanks

Rocketpug,

Please run a speed test to New York City servers instead of Toronto - this will give you a more accurate idea of your streaming speed to our servers. Also, please note that we recommend a minimum upload speed of 700kbps to stream. If you're currently wireless, plugging your internet directly into your computer should give you a better result.
